Arugam Bay

The glorious sea, sand, sun and surf in Arugam Bay are just perfect for those who want to enjoy a tropical island getaway. Acclaimed as one of the world’s top ten surfing spots, Arugam Bay has grown in prominence over the years, attracting tourists from around the world to capture the stunning beauty of the golden-sand beaches.

This moon-shaped curl of soft sand is home to a well-known point break that many consider as the best surf spot in Sri Lanka. Aside from Main Point, Arugam Bay has several other surf breaks along the coast – including Whiskey Point in the North, a famed surf spot where even beginners can embark on a surfing adventure. Elephant Rock and Peanut Farm are two other favorite surf spots, which are extraordinary isolated beaches, located south from the Bay.

Venturing a little further south will get you to Okanda, a beautiful surf point immersed in jungle, located near the entrance of the Kumana National Park. For beginners, there is a smaller break within the bay itself, referred to as Baby Point.  Arugam Bay is the ideal destination for surfing in Sri Lanka, and has continuously attracted a steady stream of international tourists for several decades.

Although Arugam Bay is heavily steeped in surf culture, there are a range of other activities that await visitors while holidaying in Arugam Bay Sri Lanka. Whether you are an adventure-junkie, culture aficionado or pleasure-seeker, Sri Lanka’s East Coast abounds with diversity, offering attractions for all kinds of travelers – from beaches, lagoons and historic temples to the nearby Kumana National Park.
